Rose's POV"Mother? Is that really you?" I cried, unable to believe my eyes.My heart raced as my eyes locked onto the familiar face of the woman who had given me life. It had been years since we were separated, and I had often wondered if I would ever see her again. But here she was, standing before me, tears of joy in her eyes as well.I extended my trembling arms toward her, and without hesitation, she rushed to my side. Our embrace was tight, filled with a depth of emotion that words could never express. Tears streamed down both our faces as we held each other, mother and daughter, reunited at last."Rose, my dear, my sweet girl," my mother whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "I've missed you so much. I never stopped thinking about you ever since..."I couldn't find my voice as I clung to her, burying my face in her shoulder, inhaling her familiar motherly scent. It was a scent that I longed for, a scent that had been absent from my life for far too long."You're here," I fin
Roses POV“Rose! Rose!! Rose!!!, it’s time to leave. You wouldn’t want to be late for Mia’s birthday and mate-claiming ceremony.’’ Mom shouted. "I’m coming Mom," I swiftly replied.I stood in front of the mirror and adjusted my green gown. I styled my hair into a beautiful bun while leaving a few curled strands on my face with some mild makeup. I grabbed my purse, took a glance at the mirror, and went downstairs.‘‘Mom, I’m ready,’’ I said as I descended the stairs. "My gorgeous princess,’’ they smiled at me and complimented my outfit. “Alpha, the vehicle is ready.’’ The driver announced.“Well then, we better not be late.” My father said as we walked outside to the car.Once a female clocks 18, she celebrates her birthday, and her mates step forward to claim her in front of everyone.The mating ceremony is such an important ceremony, we dedicated a building for it so the ceremony can take place there without having to crowd family houses.The birthday ceremony starts at 7 pm while th
Tears welled up in my eyes as I saw my boyfriend getting mated to another girl right in front of me.My wolf retreated as she howled in pain. My ribs contracted and my breath hitched as I tried to shove back my tears.Their words felt like a physical blow and I could not believe my relationship with Brandon had ended. I got a public breakup from my boyfriend whom I had given my everything to.I remained rooted to the ground still in shock, as I reminisced on all our happy moments, the laughs, loves, and intimate moments we had.He had promised Eve; my wolf and I the world, to spend the rest of our lives together. The amount of sadness I felt could not be quantified.It took me a while to recollect myself from the bombshell that dropped a few minutes ago but at the end of it, with some encouraging words from Sienna and Mom through mind link, I was able to pull myself together from the mess he put me in and put on a welcoming smile for the new couple.I used all of my efforts to have a
I got to my safe haven and changed out of the gown I wore into casual clothes. The person I took time to dress for was mated to someone else so there was no use in looking pretty. I sat down on the bare grass, with my knees pulled towards my chest and I cried uncontrollably. From the claiming down to the kissing scene, my heart was breaking into a million uncountable pieces. All my happiness was gone, and it was replaced by a feeling of emptiness and despair. My cries increased as my thoughts drifted to the future. A future without him, my only love. I began to imagine myself attending an event and he won’t be with me. I won’t be able to talk to him about my day or my feelings when I’m down. “Why? Moon Goddess why?? He was my mate, he was mine. Why did you take him from me?" I screamed at the top of my lungs and my tears poured like a storm without an end. I just lost a part of myself and I didn’t know how to move on. I sat there questioning if I would be able to move on or not.
Our laughter turned into fear as we realized we were surrounded and in danger. Hottie stepped in front of me, wanting to shield me but he didn’t know I’m an Alpha’s daughter, trained for battle. “Just passing through, we mean no harm,” he slurred. The attackers didn’t want to reason, instead, they closed in on us, snarling and baring their teeth. We knew we were outnumbered but we were determined to leave the attack alive. The wolves let out a fierce howl, signaling the commencement of their attack. They charged forward but hottie and I were ready. “Don’t kill them, just make them unconscious. We don’t want problems in another territory” I said to him in a low voice before elongating my claws not wanting to ruin my clothes by turning completely. I lunged forward with my claws extended and sliced through the skin of the first werewolf to reach me accompanied by some blows. Due to my swift movements and multiple injuries sustained, the wolf let out a gurgling cry as it fell to the
HOTTIE'S POVI grabbed her by the waist and pulled her on top of me deepening the kiss. Our lips danced and our tongues entwined as our saliva mixed. I pulled away from the kiss, looking at the sweet damsel sitting on my crotch asking for permission before proceeding. I got the answer I needed when she kissed me back harder than before, her fingers tracing lines on my chest and my abs as she grinded on my already hard manhood while using one of her hands to pull me closer and caress my head. I, on the other hand, used both my palms to squeeze her ass, groping them while she danced on me. I took one of my hands and took them under her shirt, she was braless. I took a handful of her breasts and squeezed them, paying attention to her already-hardened nipple. She pulled out from the kiss and let out a moan as I squeezed her nipples and breasts while grabbing her soft cheeks. Her moans got louder and her body radiated more heat as she responded to my touch. Her green eyes gleamed with un
Rose's POVI woke up with a pounding headache and a dry mouth that felt like the Sahara desert. It felt like someone was jackhammering inside my skull. Slowly, I opened my eyes and tried to focus on my surroundings.I was in the same hotel room as the previous night. The curtains were drawn, but I could see the sunlight trying to peek through the edges. The room was a mess. Empty bottles of beer and whiskey were scattered on the floor. ”What happened?" I asked no one until I felt a strong arm draped over my waist and I looked down and saw myself naked, under the sheets. "Fuck," I cursed in a low voice, making sure not to wake the hot and sexy man beside me. I tried to sit up, but the room spun around me. I groaned and fell back onto the pillow.The pain in between my legs made it evident that we had sex and at that moment, all I wanted to do was die. "What happened last night?" I asked Eve but got no reply.My mind was foggy, and my memories were hazy. I tried to piece together the
Rose's POV My heart was pounding in my chest as the car screeched around the corner, narrowly missing a parked car. The black car was still following us, and I could see the driver's face in the rearview mirror, his eyes fixed on us."We need to get out of here," I said, my voice trembling. "Can't you go any faster?"The driver looked back at me, his face tense. "I'm doing my best," he said. "But they're not giving up."We sped down the side street, the sound of the black car's engine roaring behind us. I could see the driver's face in the mirror, his eyes flicking between the road and the car chasing us.And then, out of nowhere, there was a loud bang, and the car swerved to the side. I screamed, thinking we had been hit, but then the driver straightened out the car, and we continued on."What was that?" I asked, my voice shaking.The driver looked back at me, his face grim. "They shot at us," he said. "We need to get out of here now."We took another turn, and I could feel the car

Adriel's POV"I'll call you back, Uncle," I said and stepped out of the hospital room, my heart heavy still with worry for Rose but I needed to find the lady who was calling my name.As I followed the sound of the enraged voice, I soon found myself in the hospital's bustling lobby. There, in the midst of the chaos, was Emily, Luke's mother, shouting and demanding to see me."Where's that bastard Alpha? Where is he? Adriel? Do you think you can murder my family and go scot-free? Show your face!" she raged, her eyes wild with grief and anger.I approached her cautiously, aware of the emotions that must be coursing through her. "Emily," I said gently, "I'm here."She turned to me with a look of pure hatred in her eyes. "You killed my son and his wife, Adriel. You're going to pay for what you've done."I swallowed hard, looking for the right words to console the woman. "I didn't kill them, Emily. I swear. The last time I saw Luke, he was injured, but dead. And Sienna, she..."She grabbed
Adriel's POVAs I held Sienna's lifeless body, the weight of sorrow pressed down on me like a leaden sky. Although she wasn't a good person, she could have lived a better life. With trembling hands, I dialed the number of my uncle."Adriel, what's happened?" came the urgent voice on the other end."Luke and Sienna are gone," I choked out. "I need you to prepare for their arrival and burial."There was a brief pause on the line, followed by a solemn, "Of course, we'll be ready."I hung up, realizing that I needed to act swiftly. With one last, lingering look, I whispered, "Rest in peace, Sienna." I said, asking one of the guards to take her away to the hospital, then together with Luke's body, they will take them to the Denver Pack.As I turned away, my phone rang, its harsh sound cutting through the stillness of the morning. I quickly answered, my heart pounding in my chest."Alpha Adriel," a familiar voice crackled through the line, "we found the twins."Relief washed over me like a
Sienna's steps were heavy as she led Rose towards the border."Sienna, please tell me where you're taking me,” Rose begged but Sienna didn't answer her.They continued walking for what felt like eternity, Rose looked up ahead and saw the moonlight casting a shimmering path on the water's surface. The waves crashed against the shore, their calm rhythmic sound in stark contrast to the turmoil Rose felt.Finally, they arrived at the bridge, the ocean sounding beneath them."Stop walking," Sienna yelled. The air was thick with tension as Sienna turned to face Rose, her eyes burning with a mixture of anger and grief. Rose looked around but there was nothing or no one. Just the two of them."Why, Rose?" Sienna's voice was a low growl, her fingers clenched into fists at her sides. "Why did you have to come into our lives and tear everything apart for me? When you finally died, I was happy. Things were going smoothly for me. Luke finally forgot about you. But you just had to show up as his si
As Sienna's grief-stricken cries echoed through the night, a newfound determination took root within her. She would kill them all, one after the other. The world seemed to blur around her, her vision clouded by pain and anger. In her hand, she gripped the dagger tightly, the metal cold against her trembling fingers.With her heart pounding, Sienna made her way through the forest, her steps guided by a singular purpose. She just lost Luke, and although their relationship was not based on love, he was her husband, and now she sought revenge. Her mind was consumed by a relentless need for justice, a thirst for vengeance that seemed to drown out all reason.And then, in the moonlit darkness, Sienna's path intersected with Fena's. The woman who had entered their lives with promises of help and change. But in Sienna's eyes, Fena was now a symbol of the chaos and the cause of loss that had torn her world apart.Fena's form came into view, her figure bathed in the moon's pale light. Sienna's
With a tense silence hanging in the air, Luke and Adriel faced each other. "You're going down, brother!"Then, in a surge of primal instinct, Luke transformed first then Adriel followed suit. In a split second, both alphas transformed into their wolf forms. The transformation was swift and seamless, their human selves giving way to powerful creatures of fur, fang, and claw. The air seemed to crackle with energy as the wolves circled each other, their eyes locked in a fierce, unyielding gaze.In their wolf forms, they moved with a fluid grace, each step deliberate and calculated. Their muscles rippled beneath their fur as they lunged.The sounds of growls and snarls filled the night, echoing through the clearing.As they fought, Luke's thoughts were a jumble of conflicting emotions. The pain of betrayal, everything swirled within him. Every strike, every clash of teeth, was a release for the anger that consumed him for so long.But despite the ferocity of their battle, Adriel's skills
"Sienna, I don't know where you are but run to your husband and warn him. It's not safe to continue!" Fena warned.Amid the tension and warnings, Sienna came to her husband's side, her expression a mix of concern and determination. She placed a hand on his arm, her touch urging him to reconsider. "Luke, we need to listen to reason. If Adriel has found out, it's too dangerous to continue."Luke's gaze remained fixed in the distance, his jaw clenched in determination. "Sienna, this is our chance. We can't let it slip away. I won't back down now."Sienna's voice was laced with worry. "But…." Luke's grip on his weapon tightened, his resolve unyielding. "But nothing! I won't let Adriel take everything from us. We've come too far."The man who had warned them urged them once again, his voice desperate. "Alpha, we're outnumbered. We can't win this."Ignoring the pleas and warnings, Luke turned to Fena, his eyes unwavering. "We're going in."Fena's voice was tinged with frustration. "Luke, y
"Something like that," Emily answered.Sienna leaned forward, curious. "Tell us everything, Mother. We need all the insight we can get."Emily took a seat at the table, her gaze steady as she began her tale. "Alpha Gabriel and Luna Isabella ruled with the people, just like Adriel. To weaken their hold on the pack, we used a combination of psychological warfare and strategic sabotage. It wasn't about brute force, but about undermining their authority and creating divisions within their ranks."Fena leaned in, her expression intense. "How did you do it?"Emily nodded, her eyes taking on a distant look. "First, we focused on planting seeds of doubt and mistrust among their most loyal followers. We carefully leaked information that made them question the motives of their leaders, causing internal conflicts and undermining their unity. With me in the pack house and Luna Isabella away, it was relatively easy.Luke's eyes lit up with realization. "Like we're planning to do with Adriel's pack
Luke's Office.The lady's smile didn't waver as she adjusted her sunglasses, seemingly unfazed by Luke's skepticism. "You may call me Fena."Sienna exchanged a wary glance with Luke, the tension in the room increasing. "Who is the woman? Do you know her from somewhere?" she asked through mind link."No, I don't. This is the first time I'm seeing her too," Luke answered.Sienna faced her. "And why should we trust you, Miss Fena? Why do you want to help us in defeating Adriel?"Fena leaned back in her chair, her fingers tapping rhythmically against the armrest. "You don't have to trust me, but I have information that could be of great interest to you."Luke crossed his arms, his eyes narrowing. "What kind of information?"Fena's lips curled into a smirk as she looked directly at Luke. "Information about Adriel's past, his vulnerabilities, his secrets. Things that could help you bring him to his knees. Isn't that what you want?"Sienna's brows furrowed. "Yes, it is. But Why would you wan
